Happy New Year!

We had a good New Year's Eve! The girls and I watched the ball drop. 

Jenna starts her fourth week at her new job tomorrow. I think she likes it, granted she's been in training this whole time.

I am chugging away in my first semester of school. Still behind but working on it.

The girls go back to school tomorrow. It should be an interesting day for Andrea as we dyed her hair green over the break.  I don't see a problem with it. When else in her life is it okay to dye your hair fun colors?  Most jobs look down upon it and as you age, one doesn't want to do the crazy colors any longer. I think she'll have fun with it.

Alyson really wants her hair dyed but her school won't allow it. :( Though this summer she shall have some pink hair :)

Well, hope your new year's was awesome.

First Snow of the Year in the Richmond Area

Well, my kids are happy.  They get to sleep in tomorrow since they have a snow day. We got our first snow of the year this weekend with any real accumulation.   We probably got around 3-6 inches, I'm not real great as measuring the amount. On an exciting note, we finally got to use the snow blower that we purchased last year. Yeah!!!!  We got it last year and then it never snowed again, doesn't that figure. LOL.  Well, Jenna and I took it out and dug out the driveway and front walkway in under 3 hours. Which is a vast improvement from the 6+ hours last year that Keith, Jenna and I worked to get the cars out. Alyson went out to play in the snow and lasted maybe 1/2 hour. She came in and told me she was done with it. She said that "you can't get anything done outside because it so cold".  That made me laugh. Dre didn't want anything to do with the weather. She has been closed up in her room as teenage-dom requires. LOL They called off work on Saturday bu...

Catching up yet again

I haven't been on here in so long. I have had a busy few months. I was working for a while but then our sitter quit. So I'm now staying at home with Aly and Andi. Aly is growing really fast and is talking up a storm. Some words are really distinguishable and some just sound like a new language. We are trying to potty train her and she is resisting. Maybe she's not ready. Andrea is in the middle of her own battle, her weight. For those of you who know us, she has always been little. Well, after speaking with the doctor about this issue, we were trying pedia sure. (That stuff is expensive.) Almost a year later she has only really gained like a pound. So now the doctor wants to have her blood checked for a thyroid problem. She may have hyperthyroidism, or that is what he is thinking. well, any thoughts are appreciated.
